Grahame,
What an interesting story!
It desreves a wider audience.
You should send it to Anabelle Rushton or Mike Sims at ABT.
Good chance they might print it.

G'day Ross, I suggest you phone All States Frames in Melbourne. Tel 03 9561 7533. Ask Glenn or John to post you one of theCOLOURMOUNT DEEP BEVEL TAPE leaflets they got from me about 1 month ago. With the help of the 14 pictures it will show you how to do it. The secret of the corners is to cut the f...

He should be well able to do it!

"COLOURMOUNT BOARD"

Rising board has been used by many framers in UK, probably without them knowing. The COLOURMOUNT Museum board is in fact made by Rising. Thats why its only 32 x 40 ins - typical USA size. Some of Crescents Museum board is also made by Rising. The same may well apply to other mat bd mfgs. Rising make...

Why does everyone in UK call it Slater's board or Slater Harrison board? It is covered in a wrapper that says " COLOURMOUNT". When advertised it is only called COLOURMOUNT. The label says "COLOURMOUNT" and I hope the invoice from your stockist says COLOURMOUNT" The chevrons ...

I would not be without my Tom Tom 700.Cost £320 in May 06. And it makes the phone hands free which is very useful.
Good in Europe - but have discovered chunks of Southern Ireland, and parts of Brittany are missing from its memory. E-mails to Tom Tom go unanswered.

I discovered "YOU TUBE " last night Its amazing. Then I typed " Picture Framing" in the search box and this came up!........




Any comments

Keith

[quote="Framing Norah" Keith, the Internet has no boundaries in the traditional sense. So is it not possible that someone in the UK, or even Timbuktu, might be able to help with Framergeek's query? Framing Norah, I accept your comments as valid! I see both you and John have helped. All I s...

I find it odd that an American is asking on what is basically a UK Forum who to use to build a web site. :? The USA is light years ahead of us in using the web. In USA 64% of framers have a web site. Does anyone know the % in UK or Europe? We should be flattered you are asking our advice. May I ask ...

A unique photo was taken yesterday at SACA - Bologna - the world's biggest frame show. In early 1990's a group photo was taken at the Madrid Frame show of the overseas exhibitors. This same group of luminaries (!) :roll: gathered again at SACA for another photo 17 years later. Sadly the only missing...

WOW !
It worked - picture is not much good, but that can be changed!

Hi John (aka Roboframer) or John at Estlite,

Thanks for this..but can you please tell me how to get the Avatar fron Photobucket to under your name?

Keith

At the Australian shows the classes are so popular they start them one day before the show opens! The classes started at 8 am :o , but the show opened at 10 am - so as to try and get some of the teaching done outside show hours. And during the show there is a marked drop in the numbers visting the b...

Dermot, Thats good advice and here is another tip.. Put 112 into your mobile. It is a Europe wide emergency number that might be useful one day. I have it in my phone under AAA, because when you go to names A comes up first so no need to scroll down looking for Emergency. I got mugged in Paris last ...

SO TELL ME WHAT TO DO NEXT..... When I first saw the notice I thought "I dont think that is a good idea". I thought at the time that if I say what I think it will not be well recieved. So I just took a photo. But now about 10 of you have all said "That notice is not a good idea" ...

G'day Glenn, WOW ! You posted on the FORUM......and it didn't byte! :lol: Thanks for correcting the second web site on my thread "Framers with good web sites " I will edit it now. Thanks for the plug about my retirement....!! Yes July 4th is the big 65. I am inviting anyone who reads this ...

For those who like me were too young :) to do national service and therefore fail to understand some of the forces slang above, - then this link will give you a whole new way of talking English! :lol: http://www.royalmarinesbands.co.uk/reference/Slang.htm Come to think of it we could do whole item i...

Kaptian Kopter,

I'm sure Roboframer has been called many names - but PONGO is new to me!
What's a Pongo?
I hope I'm not alone in asking....
